+B<oping> uses ICMPv4 or ICMPv6 ECHO_REQUEST packets to measure a hosts
reachability and the network latency. In contrast to the original L<ping(8)>
utility B<oping> can send ICMP packets to multiple hosts in parallel and wait
-for all ECHO_RESPONSE packets to arrive. In contrast to the
-B<fping> utility (URL is listed in L<"SEE ALSO">) B<oping> can use both, IPv4
-and IPv6 transparently and side by side.
